Israeli Knesset election (October 27, 2026): Gadi Eisenkot (Yashar party) becomes Israel's next Prime Minister (confirmed by Israeli Central Elections Committee or Reuters by November 15, 2026)

Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 13. September 2026 · Predicted for 27. October 2026 · Based on: Speculative
Probability
55%

Polymarket gives Eisenkot 54.5% probability of becoming next Israeli PM (September 13, 2026; $37.2M trading volume). Five-poll average (Sep 8-10): Yashar 23.6 seats, Likud 21.8 seats. Netanyahu's right-wing bloc reaches ~53-54 seats — far from the required 61. Only one of five current surveys (i24NEWS) shows Netanyahu near a majority. Eisenkot's bloc can reach up to 61 seats with Arab-democratic lists. Netanyahu has only 29% probability on Polymarket.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Polymarket: Eisenkot 54,5 % als Nächster Premierminister Israels (Stand 13. September 2026, 37,2 Mio. USD Volumen)
  • Jerusalem Post Umfragen-Rundschau: Yashar 23,6 Sitze, Likud 21,8 Sitze im Schnitt (10. September 2026)
  • Times of Israel: Wahlpatt nach Listenfinalisierung – Eisenkot-Weg zu 61 Sitzen möglich (September 2026)
  • Haaretz: Knesset-Wahl offiziell am 27. Oktober 2026 (Parlamentsbeschluss 12. Juli 2026)
Verdict: Miss
Die Wahl fand wie vorhergesagt am 27. Oktober 2026 statt, jedoch wurde Eisenkot NICHT als Ministerpräsident bestätigt. Netanjahus Rechtsblock gewann 53 Sitze, Eisenkots Oppositionsblock nur 48 Sitze – keiner erreichte die nötige Mehrheit von 61. Der entscheidende Fehler der Vorhersage: Eisenkots einziger Weg zu 61 Sitzen verlief über die arabischen Parteien (~19 Sitze), aber seine eigenen Koalitionspartner Liberman (Yisrael Beytenu) und Bennett blockierten genau dieses Szenario explizit. Eisenkot erklärte sich zwar selbst zum Sieger, doch bis zur Frist 15. November 2026 wurde weder von der israelischen Wahlkommission noch von Reuters eine Bestätigung als PM gemeldet – stattdessen befand sich Israel in einem politischen Patt mit laufenden Koalitionsverhandlungen.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP) secures parliamentary majority with Vox coalition and becomes Spanish Prime Minister — General Election 29 November 2026 (confirmed by Junta Electoral Central or AP by 1 December 2026)

Spain holds a general election on 29 November 2026. Polymarket prices Feijóo as next PM at 85%, Kalshi at 82% — both serve as anchors. A separate Polymarket market gives PP+Vox a 92% probability of a joint majority (>176/350 seats). Current polls (Sondaxe) show PP at 29.2% narrowly ahead of PSOE (26.9%); Vox is tracking slightly higher. Feijóo failed to form a government in 2023, but market odds reflect the lesson learned: PP+Vox is now seen as stable enough. No deviation from market anchor warranted.

Roger Wicker (Republican) retains the US Senate seat in Mississippi after recount — confirmed by AP or NBC News by 20 November 2026

With 97% of votes counted, Republican incumbent Roger Wicker leads by just 28 votes per NBC News live results (04.11.2026) — one of the closest Senate races in history. Mississippi election law requires an automatic recount when the margin falls below 0.5% of total votes, expected to conclude by 15–20 November. The remaining 3% of ballots originate primarily from rural precincts with historically higher Republican turnout, giving Wicker a slight statistical edge. No specific Polymarket market for Mississippi was identified.

Mary Peltola (Democrat) wins the US Senate seat in Alaska against Dan Sullivan (Republican) — US Midterm Elections November 3, 2026 (confirmed by AP or NBC News by November 5, 2026)

Polymarket gives Peltola a 72% win probability (as of November 3, 2026). The Democrat benefits from Alaska's Ranked Choice Voting system, which structurally favors cross-partisan candidates, as well as strong support from the Indigenous population and Alaska Native organizations. The national environment weighs on Sullivan: Polymarket gives Democrats a 72–77% probability of winning the Senate majority and 95% in the House. Early mail-ballot returns show a slight pro-Democratic lean in Alaska. Because Alaska uses ranked choice, a final count is not expected until November 5.
